Creates a Spot Instance request.

For more information, see Spot Instance requests in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.

We strongly discourage using the RequestSpotInstances API because it is a legacy API with no planned investment. For options for requesting Spot Instances, see Which is the best Spot request method to use? in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.

Note:

This is an asynchronous operation using the standard naming convention for .NET 4.5 or higher. For .NET 3.5 the operation is implemented as a pair of methods using the standard naming convention of BeginRequestSpotInstances and EndRequestSpotInstances.
